You can receive a voluntary severance payment if the following 2 conditions have been completed:

• Your position is being restructured during a service reorganization and you choose accordingly to resign
• There was a deliberation to provide a voluntary severance package in your community.

The deliberation is taken after the opinion of the social committee.

The deliberation shall determine the services, job managers and grades concerned by the restructuring of the service and for which the voluntary severance pay may be awarded.

It shall also lay down the conditions for the award and the amount of the severance pay.
